I always enjoy your pictures Matt, but with #2, I cannot help thinking that you don't need all that black at the bottom of the picture. Maybe crop a bit off. I think leave a band about equal in with from the edge of the shadow to the white marker that delineates the edge of the platform. It still grounds the picture but doesn't pull the eye as much.

Thanks Greg, you make an interesting comment on #2. I did look at cropping it a number of times but each time I came back to the heavy black bottom....not sure why but it just seemed to anchor the image in a way that I found refreshing. The black void seems to add impact to the small figure in red and balance it out. I guess there could be many interpretations of this image and they would all be valid.

I actually prefer 3 # 1 best. I am not sure about #2.
